I love these paddles. They hold tight to my hand and yet leave enough finger wiggle to adjust my goggles without taking them off. The only reason that I didnt give them five stars is that they arrived with two sets of tubing and absolutely no instructions on how they "should" be strung. I ended up going to Arena's web site and blowing up the catalog picture.

Speedo is good at making hand paddles, but Arena seems better - a lot better. the bands are a lot more rigid and fit securely in place, so they wiggle around much less than most other paddles. I have mind just right, so that it doesn't feel tight, yet my hands still feel securely attached (speedo's are awesome, but they often get loose and require re-tightening after long swims).

Paddles have lots of options as far as hand placement with straps! Zero complaints!
